Caravan
"Romance, 1840. Nobleman tries to kill author, who gets amnesia and weds Spanish gypsy." --British Film Catalogue. Commercially successful, Caravan is almost tongue-in-cheek in its determination to pile in every stock situation and cliché from Under Two Flags to Riders of the Purple Sage. But it's marvelous, larger-than-life romantic and melodramatic fun, with Stewart Granger, Anne Crawford, and Jean Kent quite overshadowed by Dennis Price and Robert Helpmann as an unlikely but superbly effective duet of villains in the Greenstreet-Lorre tradition. --William K. Everson
